18f4431 PORT.5 Problem Large automated machine

[microcnc05]

I usually use meCONFIG.exe just because it's so much faster when I'm writing code and it has the chips in it I use. Here is the long form of the same file. The weird thing is that this program was working just fine. And playing around with HSERIN with and interrupt routine is what messed things up. I had the interrupt working fine and just change a little bit of code and then it stopped working. I've tried the original code without interrupt that's been working for a month just fine and it won't run portb.5 now. Could something have gotten screwed up with the programming software? I"m using the melabs U2 USB programmer. It's just odd, nothing was hooked to the pin but my scope.

CONFIG PWM4MX = RB5 ; PWM4 output is multiplexed with RB5

Yep I tried that as well. My first post shows CONFIG PWM4MX = RD5 The second post I was just showing the output for meConfig one line of code. Still stumped. Tomorrow I'll try another board with a fresh pic, unless there is something setup in the programming software I'm unaware of.

Plot thickens . I went to my shop today and programmed this simple code to the board and it works fine. I then try and program the same code from my laptop even after uninstalling and reinstalling U2 programming software. Nothing now it won't work. It's got to be some setting that got messed up. I need to be able to program it from my laptop though in the field. Any thoughts?

Ok I found it, there were a couple of configuration bits that for some reason the config setting I originally had didn't work when I launched the programmer. I changed them with the U2 software before programming and now all is well. I guess this is one of those moments where you've been staring at the screen for hours and you mind is starting to get tunnel vision. Thanks for you help

Oh yeah as soon as I get the machine done I'll post some pictures and video of the project as well.

[microcnc05]

Well I finished up the machine and delivered it. My client is thrilled and has more automated machines he wants me to get started on. But like I said I'd post a little about this project. This machine is for a very progressive framing company that is automating every aspect of their business. This machine will except window and door water proofing seal from 4" to 30" wide and interface with their software over USB. They have an in house software engineer that writes all their custom software to break a job down and minimize waist. Every aspect of their framing is maximized through automation. I worked with him over the internet interfacing my control with his software and after a handful of emails and a couple calls we had it debugged and running. Minus my original post here which was a late night, frustration and a wrong configuration bit. It bites us all at some point. So here is the youtube video of the project in front of my shop.


Also the main PCB and secondary interface PCB for using the DYN4 AC servo drive and all inputs and outputs. I'm using a pic18f4431 on the main board because it's a handy controller with and easy to use quadrature encoder. It's one of my basic boards I always use designed in diptrace. Here are some pictures.
